Friday marked the end of work and school for two weeks! We had our winter party in fifth grade, and it was great to be both a teacher and a parent throughout the festivities. In one station, the kids had 15 minutes to make a human snowman using toilet paper and construction paper. Below is Maddie at the halfway point. She had ears and a tail by the time her group was complete. Winners were determined by the amount of clapping at the end. Madeline was thrilled when her group won.
Saturday was a full full day! I got up early, went to two stores, got my hair done, took the girls to see the Nutcracker, then hosted a holiday get-together with some of Kent's old Burke friends.
Here are some pictures I took of a recent sunrise! This is the view from our breakfast table.
This is out of order, but Friday night, the girls attended a community Christmas party where they had their faces painted. Kent took them, and I had the house to myself for over two hours!
Madeline strung popcorn for our tree. I was surprised by her patience.
Merry Christmas Eve!
